Some Turkish municipalities have a rule called “foreigners’ property.” This means that foreigners cannot buy properties or land.
This is in order to protect Turkish citizens from having their homes or properties bought by foreigners. It is possible to buy real estate or land in Turkey by paying the taxes,
but if you live abroad, you will have to make sure that the municipality in which the property is located has a “foreigners’ property” rule. Many municipalities have their own rules regarding foreign ownership of properties.
Usually, the rule says that foreigners can buy land only in towns, not in villages or rural areas. There Land for sale in Turkey must be a town or city in the region where the property is located.
However, some municipalities have special regulations for foreign ownership of properties in their cities.
The cities with these special regulations are usually the biggest cities in the country. Usually, the purpose of the “foreigners’ property” rules is to protect the Turkish people.
